Hepsia v. cPanel
cPanel is the most popular hosting Control Panel today. But that does not mean that it is the finest - it has a lot of flaws and it has had them for such a long time that they are no longer considered flaws by most people. But only because something was okay in the year 2000 doesn't imply that the same thing will be okay now.
Here are the most essential distinctions between the cPanel Control Panel and the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel:
1. Domain/billing/website controls
With Hepsia, you can manage your website, domain name and billing easily, from a one location.
With cPanel, you have 2 separate Control Panel interfaces - one for your site and another one for your billing transactions and domains.
2. File structure
With Hepsia, each domain name has its own separate folder.
With cPanel, you have one main domain name folder and all other add-on domain names are located inside it.
3. File Manager
With the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you can use drag 'n' drop file upload right into the File Manager. It also supports archive/unarchive options and right-click context menus.
After some recent updates, cPanel's File Manager performs and looks much better. Nevertheless, it offers neither drag 'n' drop file upload support, nor archive/unarchive functions.
4. Free bonuses
With Hepsia, you receive multiple free extras.
With cPanel, the free-of-charge extras you receive depend on the web hosting solutions provider, which implies that you can also obtain a stripped-down cPanel with nothing else.
5. Control Panel speed
Tests have shown that the Hepsia CP is 3 to 5 times faster than the cPanel hosting Control Panel.
While with the The cPanel hosting Control Panel you do your work in time, it's designed on concepts from the year 2000 and can be slow at times.
6. Mutli-domain controls
Administering ten different sites with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel is as difficult as managing 1 or 2 websites.
Hosting 10+ websites in a single cPanel account is indeed hard.
7. Control Panel navigation
The Hepsia hosting Control Panel lists only the most important sections on the home page and you can navigate using drop-down menus available in all of the sections.
cPanel displays all available icons on the home page. To navigate between sections, you invariably have to return there.
8. Demo accounts
The Hepsia CP offers a full-fledged demo version with just a few functions disabled. You can even create a whole site and see how it looks like prior to deciding whether or not to sign up.
cPanel offers a stripped-down demo, which will only offer you a basic idea of what the cPanel hosting Control Panel can do.
This list can go on and on. But instead of simply reading about these web hosting Control Panels, why don't you give the Hepsia Control Panel a shot with our Live Demo and discover for yourself how easy website hosting can be?
